We like to put it this way: "We are ordinary guys in love with an extraordinary gospel". Honestly, there isn't a lot to say about us. We're just three normal guys hailing from South India, who are dedicated to the pursuit of truth. The Cross Purpose podcast is our humble attempt at sparking honest, sincere and unashamed discussions that revolve around the true gospel of Jesus Christ and its continued relevance today.
Join us for REFORM TODAY 2023, a celebration of the Protestant Reformation on the 31st of October.

"Can we be absolutely sure about this promise "Train up a child in the way he should go and when he grows old he will never depart from it?" If yes, why is it evident in many godly families that children depart from the training they received when they grow old? If no, why not?"

TheCrossPurpose Podcast Episode 10 (Q&A) - We talk about church unity, salvation, the Protestant Reformation and so on...
So, we hosted a very short Q&A session during an event held a few weeks back commemorating the Reformation Day. There were several questions about the reformation and about the unity of the church that were fielded by Michael and Ashok. Here's what happened there.

In today's episode, we delve into the recent incident involving John MacArthur and his church, Grace Community Church in California, who took a stand against the local government and decided to resume conducting services as they used to. How do we discern, from a Biblical viewpoint, the right reaction to the government closing down churches for such a long time period, and how do we evaluate the stand we must take for the gospel?
The wages of sin is death. How, then, can there be sin that does not lead to death? Here is another Q&A episode from The Cross Purpose podcast. We try to tackle a somewhat difficult question regarding sin not leading to death, as talked about in 1John chapter 5.
It's been a while since the last episode, but we've come out of our hiatus to discuss the compelling social movement that has begun to gain critical mass in the West and is rapidly spreading throughout the world. How do we understand everything that's going on around the "Black Lives Matter" movement, and how do we react to it, considering our Christian worldview?
Q&A episode! God, through His word, reminds us often to not fear. Practically, though, how much of life's fears can we actually overcome by trusting in the person and promises of God? How about the silly fears and phobias?
In this episode, we take on some questions that we've received from our listeners. Would Paul have ever heard of the saying, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned", are women really equal to men, and what on earth do any of these have to do with pants?
A brand new episode of The Cross Purpose podcast, where we come together to answer the age-old question, "Watcha doin'?"We discuss things the lockdown in India has taught us, and how we've been spending all the extra time we have now, and also whether or not Christians should watch TV and movies
The Cross Purpose podcast goes live on Resurrection Sunday for Episode 3, as we take on the topic closest to our hearts - the purpose of the Cross of Christ. Join us as we discuss the true gospel, and several questions that believers face regarding the Word of God and the local church.
Does God need to be defended by man? If not, why apologetics? In light of our understanding of God, how do we face times of suffering? And are all of these just blind beliefs?
